• Phone while driving: what would you do? 12 Jul 2006 (Forum)
  A dilemma I faced recently: I'd be interested to hear other people's views on it. You are setting out on a 10-mile journey in a friend's car, and the owner is at the wheel driving through heavy but free-flowing urban traffic. The route takes you around roundabouts, down narrow streets
• All this Insurance Fully Comp Business 16 Oct 2005 (Forum)
  There's something about this which is making it really difficult for me to be cynical. I don't think it's anything to do with someone buying an old Fiesta and driving their Porsche on the third party extension. After all, there are limitations of use aren't there? I mean - look at it this way. My
• dear rover drivers 1 Aug 2005 (Forum)
  approached one. I would really like to know from a rover driver - why do most of you drive like you're brain dead? - why do you do 40 in a 60 and then carry on at 40 in a 30? - why do most of you wear hats when you're driving? - what will you drive when the last rover falls apart because of all the tat
• RTA & Driving Licences 28 Feb 2002 (Forum)
  I know these are the queries I normally answer myself, but here`s one I don`t know the answer to. If a non-UK citizen is in the UK they are able to drive on their "foreign" driving licence for a length of time. This length of time depends on the circumstances, but that isn`t my point. I am a UK
• Who was driving Speed Cameras 3 Dec 2001 (Forum)
  Who was driving - speed camera loopholes ! I am told that some people with 'points' on their licence ask friends or relatives to say that they {the friens / relative} were driving. The ?guilty person may pay the fine, of say their 90 year old grandmother who has not driven for 15 years
• Revoked licence - insurance 30 Jan 2020 (Forum)
  Hi all, I've been involved in an accident 2 days ago. When the police took my details they have found out that my driving licence has been revoked 7 years ago, of which I obviously didn't know. I've contacted the DVLA and I was told that indeed, it's been revoked. I didn't know
• Car drivers have to pass a test to ride moped? 14 Dec 2016 (Forum)
  Ok I passed my full UK car driving test in 2005, in 2008 I passed a bus and lorry driving test. I decided it would save me money and be easier if I got myself a little moped to drive to the bus depot and let my missus drive my car while I'm at work. Great what could be simpler than that? So I
• Land Rover Range Rover Sport (2005 - ) - Had a long drive in one last night 8 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  Had to go to Newcastle (from Manchester) last night and shared the driving with a friend who has a TDV6 on big wheels. Was better than I anticpated, but not as good as I had hoped. The lower profile tyres made the steering wooden, and the ride too jittery. The damp white lines on the road also
• Defensive driving 6 Jul 2004 (Forum)
  Yesterday, as I was driving home, for a bit of a change I was in the left of two lanes joining a roundabout, and the person in the right hand lane cut across me(usually happens when I'm, in the inside lane), had I not been hanging back in the general expectation of something daft happening I would
• Would you shop 'em? 16 Nov 2001 (Forum)
  Arising from the thread on motorway driving, middle lane hoggers etc. If you suspect a loved one is unfit to keep driving, what do you do about it? My mother complained that my late uncle was clearly unfit to drive - let the pedants understand that this is before he died! - a combination

  Driving in traffic is more than just knowing how to operate the mechanisms which control the vehicle; it requires knowing how to apply the rules of the road . An effective driver also has an intuitive understanding of the basics ofvehicle handling and can drive responsibly.
